PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Kichirou Yamauchi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ante Gardasevic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Yamauchi might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Roy Jones JR Legend - Can't Be Touched . Gardasevic has chosen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPUSG9feE6k as his entrance music. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
