PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Randall Swain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tony Gordon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Swain kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Lunatic Fringe. Tony Gordon told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
