PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Frank Hammer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Martin Kampmann (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hammer kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Slippin. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
