PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Aaron Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Billa Bong (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Gracie might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Hydraulix 13.5 - D.A.V.E. the Drummer & Alex Calver. Bong has chosen Bite Marks - Screeching Weasel as his entrance music. The atmosphere really building for this one as we go over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
