PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Tyler Brooks (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Derrick Rose (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Brooks kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Tom Sawyer. Rose has chosen Mama Said Knock You Out as his entrance music. I can't wait for this one - let's get the fighter introductions out of the way and get this one started!
