PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between King Leonidas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jimmy Skelter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Leonidas comes to the cage accompanied by The 300. Skelter has chosen Helter Skelter as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Jimmy Skelter told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
