PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Carlos Severo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ranca Tampa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Severo's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Hallowed Be Thy Name. Carlos Severo looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
