PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Azadshatru Singh (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Chris Booger (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Singh kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is 2 Of The Best Ft R D - Bohemia. Booger is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Ang Kulangot. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
