PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Alex Asztalos (ranked 74 p4p, 13 weight class) and Michael D Amato (ranked 93 p4p, 15 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Asztalos might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Dethroned Emperor by Celtic Frost. D Amato has chosen Machine Gun - Hated as his entrance music. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
