PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Uri Gellar (ranked 2424 p4p, 3501 weight class) and Arlo Rochester (ranked 309 p4p, 424 weight class). Gellar kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is James Randi exposes Uri Geller. Rochester is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Tech N9ne- Dysfunctional. 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.
