PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Saint Pierre (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Matt Porter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Pierre might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Where is My Mind. Porter has chosen Oh Lets Do It by Wacka Flocka Flame as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
