PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Mick Marsden (ranked 615 p4p, 686 weight class) and Phillip Coles (ranked 71 p4p, 83 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Marsden might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Brick - Ben Folds Five. Coles is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: HonestKey- Pass. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the prize buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
