PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rocky Stone (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cole Elliot (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stone's entrance music is THROW MONEY. A fine choice. Elliot has chosen Party Up as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
