PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Salvador Alves (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Julius Ceasar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Alves kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Mama said "Knock You Out". Julius Ceasar 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!
