PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Gonzo Bunga (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marcus Adams (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Bunga might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Nova. Adams is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: barbarian battle. The key to victory for Gonzo Bunga has got to be keeping the fight on the feet.
