PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Manco Unknown (ranked 838 p4p, 746 weight class) and Emporio Cannabino (ranked 116 p4p, 104 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Unknown might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Ennio Morricone. Cannabino is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Ludacris - Blueberry yum yum. Emporio Cannabino has the eye of the tiger tonight.
