PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Brian Foster (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and ADAM ROBLES (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Foster's entrance music is Despicable. A fine choice. ROBLES has chosen WHO LET THE DOGS OUT as his entrance music. ADAM ROBLES told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
