PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Tim Ernst (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dwight Grant (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ernst kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjVvhDwFnJk. Grant has chosen Beanie (Mack B****) as his entrance music. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
