PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Kirk Lancaster (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jet Hemi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Lancaster might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Raekwon - Guillotine(Swordz). Hemi is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Satyricon - Fuel For Hatred. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the ring.
