PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Kuromiya Hiro (ranked 101 p4p, 160 weight class) and Broady Hallows (ranked 10 p4p, 17 weight class). Hallows is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: POSTALMONDCLARITY. Broady Hallows 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!
