PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between George Martin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jason Sturd (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Martin kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Song of Ice and Fire Art Collection. The crowd seem to be enjoying Sturd's choice of entrance music: Young Jeezy - Death Before Dishonor. This should be fireworks!
