PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Roy Gaston (ranked 1287 p4p, 173 weight class) and Carl Moore (ranked 830 p4p, 120 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Gaston might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to You Can Do It. Moore is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Sad Man's Tongue by Volbeat.
