PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Vince Carter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tanuki Shinra (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Shinra has chosen I'm Shipping Up To Boston - Dropkick Murphys as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
