PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Scott Wright (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Damien Krigarson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Wright might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Bullet for my Valentine - Scream Aim And Fire. Krigarson has chosen Walk all over you, Ac/Dc as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Scott Wright had a look across the cage there at his opponent. He definitely means business
