PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between La Tron Carter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Angel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Carter comes to the cage accompanied by Fear. Angel has chosen Hate Me Now as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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?
