PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Arn Anderson (ranked 1479 p4p, 182 weight class) and John Marston (ranked 1862 p4p, 231 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Anderson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Enforcer. Marston has chosen Bleed It Out as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Arn Anderson has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
