PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Chris White (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cory Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think White might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Fugees - Ready or not. The crowd seem to be enjoying Jones's choice of entrance music: DJ Shadow - Organ Donor. Cory Jones has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Chris White's chin.
