PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between John Fadden (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ryan Rabago (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Fadden kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Johnny by CORTEZ. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
