PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Roger Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Roy Bent (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gracie's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Dread Zepellin - Stairway to Heaven. Bent has chosen Dropkick Murphys - Im shipping up to Boston as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Roger Gracie has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
