PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Tony Kazarian (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marcel Cerdan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kazarian's entrance music is Limp Bizkit - My Way. A fine choice. Cerdan has chosen French National Anthem as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Marcel Cerdan was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
