PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mike Smith (ranked 3321 p4p, 431 weight class) and Ed Landry (ranked 3540 p4p, 455 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Smith might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Therion - Sitra Ahra. Landry has chosen Ride Wit Me - Nelly as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Mike Smith had a look across the cage there at his opponent. He definitely means business
