PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Eric Barnes (ranked 635 p4p, 1200 weight class) and Douglas Cardozo (ranked 92 p4p, 173 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Barnes might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Exterminate. The crowd seem to be enjoying Cardozo's choice of entrance music: DMX - Lord Give Me A Sign. The crowd giving both fighters a great reception on their way into the arena. That's good to see.
