PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between John Brown (ranked 2672 p4p, 311 weight class) and Ross Buchanan (ranked 4564 p4p, 452 weight class). Brown's entrance music is Some Bodies Gonna Get It. A fine choice. Buchanan has chosen Roy Buchanan's Train Blues as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Man, I cannot wait for this one!
