PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Daft Young (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Russian Zombie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Young's entrance music is Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger. A fine choice. Russian Zombie 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!
