PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Muay Thai (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jiu Jitsu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Thai's entrance music is Deadly Muay Thai Skills. A fine choice. Jitsu has chosen Nikkfurie- The a la Menthe as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
