PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dante Fertit (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Professor F (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Fertit kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Roots Bloody Roots. The crowd seem to be enjoying F's choice of entrance music: shortest man in world. Professor F has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
