GAMMA #59 PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Michael Jenkins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Theodore Arsene Peroche (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jenkins kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Wish It Never Happened. Peroche has chosen Down with the sickness as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Theodore Arsene Peroche is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
