PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Dmonray Malapitan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tony Bamboni (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Malapitan's entrance music is My Time is Now. A fine choice. Bamboni has chosen Ice Ice Baby as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
