PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Andre Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Henk Tank (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Jones might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to icky thump. Tank is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Tech N9ne - The Beast. Henk Tank will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
