PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Glenn Stroud (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tedward Bundiac (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stroud kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Septic Flesh - Pyramid God. Bundiac has chosen Jay-Z & Kanye West - Ni**as In Paris as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Tedward Bundiac has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
