PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Andries Aldo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tyson Willingham (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Aldo kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is I Just Want it All. Tyson Willingham 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!
