PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Cliff Richards (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rob Roberto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Richards might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Fancy Pants. Roberto is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Freak on a leash - Korn. The crowd giving both fighters a great reception on their way into the arena. That's good to see.
