PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Con Waterson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Andrew Diotte (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Waterson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Oasis - Roll With It. Diotte comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Cypress Hill - I Want 2 Get High kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
