PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between John McClane (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tiago Mendez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). McClane's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Creep. Mendez has chosen Trap Door as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Tiago Mendez is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
