PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Hunter Thompson (ranked 10378 p4p, 894 weight class) and Charles Cooper (ranked 2865 p4p, 363 weight class). Thompson kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Love the way you hate me . Cooper has chosen s.mouse - slap my elbow as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Charles Cooper has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
