PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Dave Matthews (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eric Be (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Matthews might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Chaos is my life. Be has chosen I Ain't No Joke as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. This should be a great matchup!
