PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Power Rade (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ron White (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). White has chosen Rick Derringer - I am a real American as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
