PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dante Cross Furia (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Giacomo Benvenuti (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Cross Furia kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Vivaldi's Winter. Benvenuti comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Black Eye Peas - Let's get retarded kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! This should be a great matchup!
