PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Hugh G Rection (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aleksander Ivanov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Rection might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Symphony of Destruction by Megadeth. The crowd seem to be enjoying Ivanov's choice of entrance music: Step Into A World (Rapture's Delight). Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the fighters buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
