DEF 13 PBP Commentary

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jak Charman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jagger Cyde (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Charman kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is Death To All But Metal. Cyde has chosen Papa Roach - Caught Dead as his entrance music. Jak Charman looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
