PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between EA Poe (ranked 4297 p4p, 420 weight class) and Techno Viking (ranked 2649 p4p, 284 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Poe might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Unleashing The Bloodthirsty by Cannibal Corpse. The crowd seem to be enjoying Viking's choice of entrance music: Techno Viking. This should be a great matchup!
