SFC131: Trenton VS Russo! PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kyle Lyle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and B A Ware (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lyle kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is "This Charming Man" By The Smiths. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
