PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jaaron Cent (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tri Angle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Angle is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Why we thugs. Jaaron Cent looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
