PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between James Assange (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bad Idea (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Assange comes to the cage accompanied by Eddie Van Halen - Eruption. Idea has chosen Boss of All Bosses as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Bad Idea 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!
