PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Marion Cobretti (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Odin Fredriksson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Cobretti might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Frank Sinatra - Fly me to the moon. Fredriksson has chosen Manowar - Gods Of War as his entrance music. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
