PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between William Crump (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rufus Lopez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Crump kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Disturbed- Down with the Sickness. Lopez has chosen Party up in here - DMX as his entrance music. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
