PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Toby Lamb (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rhomboid Goatcabin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lamb kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Saltwater. Goatcabin has chosen Selfishly Irritating as his entrance music. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
