PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Edgy Brah (ranked 653 p4p, 81 weight class) and Klay Dee (ranked 1165 p4p, 127 weight class). Brah's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Dropped by Smoke Serpent. Dee is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Tyler, The Creator - Who Dat Boy. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
