PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Meat Loaf (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Colin Burton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Loaf might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Eat My Loaf. Burton has chosen Trip Like I Do as his entrance music. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
