PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Gino Gambini (ranked 453 p4p, 865 weight class) and Judah Christ (ranked 58 p4p, 112 weight class). Gambini kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Greedy BD - Mobcutmuzik. Judah Christ is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
