PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Russell Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jj Oppapatika (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jones kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is On the Eve of War. The crowd seem to be enjoying Oppapatika's choice of entrance music: My Way. 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!
