PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Shane Ross (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and George Beurling (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Ross might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Johnny Cash - Ring of Fire. Beurling has chosen Dayglo Abortions - Argh F**k Kill as his entrance music. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
