PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Pablo Itzpapalotltotec (ranked 420 p4p, 967 weight class) and Ziggy Ozbourne (ranked 59 p4p, 132 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Itzpapalotltotec might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Copacabana - Barry Manilow. Ozbourne has chosen Crazy Train as his entrance music. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
