PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ricco Roduez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Shawn Michaels (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Roduez kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Sander Van Doorn vs Marco V - what say. Michaels has chosen Sexy Boy as his entrance music. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
