PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Joseph Razore (ranked 7689 p4p, 482 weight class) and Celininho Franco (ranked 6404 p4p, 443 weight class). Razore kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is My Way by Joe Frazier. Celininho Franco told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
