PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Chris Adebisi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ricky Lee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Adebisi kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Dr Alban - Hello Africa. Lee has chosen I Am Perfection by Cage 9 as his entrance music. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Ricky Lee was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
