PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Antonio Lobo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Frankie Post (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lobo kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Carbon Based Lifeforms - Photosynthesis. Post has chosen Bom Bom pow as his entrance music. Antonio Lobo has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
