PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Sativa Sensei (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Miller (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Sensei might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Stevie Ray - Pride and Joy. Miller has chosen Logic feat. Castro - Ballin as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Sativa Sensei looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
