PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ed Gennero (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ronny James Dio (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Gennero might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Wally's Pep Talk. Dio has chosen you know its gotta be Holy Diver as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
