PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Shi Fu Tu (ranked 1025 p4p, 117 weight class) and Altair Brain (ranked 2244 p4p, 220 weight class). Fu Tu's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Klendathu drop. Brain has chosen 300 Violin as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the ring.
