PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jesus Christ (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jimmy Nelson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Christ's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Everything in it's right place. Nelson has chosen AFI - Totalimmortal as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
