PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Lucas LaVey (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Keynes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). LaVey's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Deicide - Scars of the Crucifix. Keynes comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Concerto for Four Violins in B minor kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! The crowd giving both fighters a great reception on their way into the arena. That's good to see.
