PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jorge Masvidal (ranked 6826 p4p, 5499 weight class) and Castor Rollins Jr (ranked 640 p4p, 568 weight class). Masvidal kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Scarface. Castor Rollins Jr told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
