CFC 159: Jesus Returns PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Pharrel Dickinson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pierre St Georges (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dickinson kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Queen - The Show Must Go On. St Georges has chosen PSG theme song as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!
