PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Sebastion Lynar (ranked 336 p4p, 593 weight class) and Bobby Mercer (ranked 36 p4p, 58 weight class). Mercer is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Why Can't We Be Friends by WAR. Bobby Mercer 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!
