PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jack Pott (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Glenn Stroud (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pott comes to the cage accompanied by Meat Loaf - Bat out of Hell. Stroud has chosen Septic Flesh - Pyramid God as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Glenn Stroud 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!
