PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Huey Freeman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kalifornian Kakara (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Freeman's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Scorpions - The Good Die Young. The crowd seem to be enjoying Kakara's choice of entrance music: The Suitmen plays Lady Gaga. Huey Freeman has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
