PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Noel Contemprato (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Zell Dincht (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Contemprato kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Cats. The crowd seem to be enjoying Dincht's choice of entrance music: Fanfare. Noel Contemprato has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
