PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Choco Late (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bj Barnes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Late's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, I come from money. Barnes has chosen Black Eyed Peas - Imma Be as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Choco Late has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
