PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Clarence Anthony (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Graemmer Natsee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Anthony might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to T.N.T by AC DC. Natsee has chosen obscure neo-folk as his entrance music. Clarence Anthony has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
