PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Victor Darwin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tiger Lee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Darwin kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is You're Going Down - Sick Puppies. Lee is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Monkeys of War. Tiger Lee will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
