PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Travis Guenette (ranked 3276 p4p, 3529 weight class) and Marshall Sanders (ranked 367 p4p, 394 weight class). Guenette kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is The Only Thing They Fear Is You. Marshall Sanders 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!
