PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Sean Myler (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Giacomo Ysengrin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Myler kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Sexy Back by Justin Timberlake. Ysengrin has chosen Chelsea Hotel as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Sean Myler has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
