PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Zander McGuire (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gotard Krasnodebski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). McGuire kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Hall of Fame ft. will.i.am. Gotard Krasnodebski 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!
