PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Nathan Ames (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jason Sturd (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Ames might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Ludacris - Get Back. Sturd has chosen DMX - We In Here as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
