PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Les Sobrante (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Chris Chandler (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sobrante kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Primus - Fisticuffs. The crowd seem to be enjoying Chandler's choice of entrance music: Rocky's Theme Song. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
