PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Paul Davison (ranked 4326 p4p, 3793 weight class) and Ryan Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 413 weight class). Davison kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Where the Streets Have No Name - U2. 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.

I can't prove myself anymore on this tiny island full of scrub fighters without being contracted by the King of the Island Fight Club. I'm calling on Thomas Forrester to send me this invite within the next 24 hours or it will be clear that him and his little fight club are scared.'.
