PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Maximus Decimus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Brian Redban (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Decimus kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is All Shall Perish- Eradication. Redban comes into a darkened arena with his song building. M83 - Midnight City kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Brian Redban told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
