PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Mister Happy (ranked 1637 p4p, 193 weight class) and Alex Valentine (ranked 2575 p4p, 277 weight class). Valentine has chosen Bloodborne OST - Gehrman, The First Hunter as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
