PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Mike Couch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Yun Zheng (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Couch kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Enemy. Yun Zheng told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
