PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jeggu Bomb (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Kruger (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bomb's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Limp Bizkit - Nookie. Kruger comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Tnt kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Jeggu Bomb had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 187.3lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
