PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Mike Litoris (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Will Bowlsby (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bowlsby has chosen Whoop That Trick as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Will Bowlsby 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!
