PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Yang Tao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mk Ultra (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tao comes into the arena with Carl Douglas - Kung Fu Fighting blaring out of the sound system. Ultra has chosen Big Bad - Satriani as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Mk Ultra 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!
