PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Michael Vera (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Di Punker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Vera kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Black Eyed Peas - Bebot. The crowd seem to be enjoying Punker's choice of entrance music: Miss May I - Relentless Chaos. Michael Vera has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
