PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Luke Lii (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alex Steel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lii kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Legend of the Ocean . Steel is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Ain't No Sunshine. Alex Steel has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
