PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Panzer Grenadier (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vincent Lontrame (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Grenadier might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Esaka '96. Lontrame has chosen Knife Party by Deftones as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Vincent Lontrame told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
