PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Cule Biens (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Conor McGregor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Biens might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Can't Be Touched - Roy Jones Jr.. The crowd seem to be enjoying McGregor's choice of entrance music: El Chapo by The Game. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
