PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Beta Knox (ranked 1100 p4p, 135 weight class) and David McCarthy (ranked 2762 p4p, 299 weight class). Knox kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Anthrax | Fight Em Till You Can't. McCarthy is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Chamillionaire - Ridin' ft. Krayzie Bone. This should be a great matchup!
