PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Sofpho King (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Micheal Alvarez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think King might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Blue Collar Man. Alvarez has chosen Doom as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Micheal Alvarez is staring across the ring at his opponent, tweaking his nipples.
