PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Bobby Moore (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Buzz Cloltran (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Moore kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Frank Klepacki - March to doom. Cloltran has chosen F**k What Happens Tonight as his entrance music. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
