PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Alejandro Mora (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Connor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Mora might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Seven Nation Army. Connor has chosen Ça vaut mieux que d'attraper la scarlatine by Ray Venture as his entrance music. Both fighters really staring each other down here, as John Connor enters the cage!
