PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Giacomo Greco (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Anthony Jay Bronie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Bronie's choice of entrance music: Cactus Jack. Anthony Jay Bronie told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
