PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Don Key (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Daniel Rand (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Key might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to EYELID - REGENERATE. Rand is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by The Last Dragon. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
