PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kain Kennedy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Deryk Tweedle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Kennedy might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Sinner by Drowning Pool. Tweedle has chosen Mickey Avalon-Stroke Me as his entrance music. The crowd giving both fighters a great reception on their way into the arena. That's good to see.
