PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Artur Lima (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joao Alves (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lima kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is March to Perfection. Alves has chosen Carl Orff - Carmina Burana - André Rieu's version as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
