PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Sub Mityou (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Maciej Zegan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Zegan has chosen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4B99CQV3uY&feature=related as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Maciej Zegan 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!
