PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Pony Mclovin (ranked 1804 p4p, 206 weight class) and Roy Batty (ranked 695 p4p, 88 weight class). Mclovin kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Redbone- Come And Get Your Love. Batty has chosen I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
