PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between JD Wildstein (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Boris Gregorovitsj (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Wildstein kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Bring It On. Gregorovitsj is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Pink Panther Theme. Boris Gregorovitsj told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
