PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Matthew Mackenzie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ron Green (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Mackenzie might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Darude - Sandstorm. Green comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Battle Royal kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the prize buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
