PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Greg Gaggenwanker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Michael Stubb (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gaggenwanker kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is The Man Comes Around. Stubb is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Paper Scratcher. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
