PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Douglas Quaid (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jack Shephard (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Quaid kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Total Recall. Shephard has chosen You All Everybody 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.
