PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Seok Yi (ranked 3075 p4p, 2608 weight class) and Michael Bostic (ranked 305 p4p, 266 weight class). Yi's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Chris Travis - We Up. Bostic comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Move kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
