PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Daleb Managedov (ranked 2689 p4p, 307 weight class) and Conor Mcgregor (ranked 3349 p4p, 360 weight class). Managedov comes to the cage accompanied by Chechen Mob Song. Mcgregor is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Hypnotize. Conor Mcgregor 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!
