PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Draft Beer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alexandros Nicolaou (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Beer kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is 300 Violin Orchestra. Nicolaou has chosen Anubis as his entrance music. I can't wait for this one - let's get the fighter introductions out of the way and get this one started!
