PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Yasuhiro Akagi (ranked 663 p4p, 103 weight class) and Jack Patton (ranked 1074 p4p, 166 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Akagi might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Nash the Slash - American Band. Patton is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Oathbreaker - Where I Live. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
