PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Michael Alexander (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Roberto Colon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Alexander's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Dirt off your Shoulers. Colon has chosen let the bodies hit the floor as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Roberto Colon has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
