PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Minobu Kurita (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Todd Cannon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kurita kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Game of Thrones. Cannon has chosen The Conquering- Black Moor as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Minobu Kurita looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
