PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Hendo Bendo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sid Savage (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bendo kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is No Falter. Savage has chosen the scatman as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Sid Savage will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
