UVT FIGHT NITE 3/3 PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ricky Ricardo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Victor Lorencao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ricardo's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Culo. The crowd seem to be enjoying Lorencao's choice of entrance music: Stemm - Face the Pain. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bronn Blackwater (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Felix Fishpockets (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Blackwater comes into the arena with For Whom the Bell Tolls blaring out of the sound system. Fishpockets has chosen I don't know how to love him as his entrance music. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
