PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Byron Nelson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Trang Troc (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Nelson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Kanye West feat Chief Keef, Pusha T, Jadakiss, Big Sean - I Don't Like. Troc is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Dr. Octagon - Real Raw. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
