PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Zach Leduc (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and TAKA Michinoku (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Leduc might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Spirit Never Dies. The crowd seem to be enjoying Michinoku's choice of entrance music: Yamato Suite Pt. 4. I can't wait for this one - let's get the fighter introductions out of the way and get this one started!
