PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Leigh Thompson (ranked 4513 p4p, 223 weight class) and Marc Buysse (ranked 5927 p4p, 301 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Thompson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to General Lee - Johnny Cash. Buysse comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Street Fighter II Ryu Theme Original kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! This should be fireworks!
