PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Joshua Kronos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Chris Griffin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kronos kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is mudvayne-dig. The crowd seem to be enjoying Griffin's choice of entrance music: Sail by AWOLNATION. Chris Griffin has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Joshua Kronos's chin.
