PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Rick Showtime (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dillon Weber (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Showtime's entrance music is Old Toms Hut. A fine choice. Weber is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by ruff ryders' anthem. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
