PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tayo Bamba (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jack Black (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Bamba might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to "Voices". Black is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Zach's Song. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
