PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Olof Orkidea (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and James Bashor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Orkidea might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to You're The Best. Bashor comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Monster by Skillet kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the prize buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
