PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dominic Hollins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Allen McNerdson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hollins kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Soulfly-Jumpdafuckup. McNerdson has chosen Cadillac Pimpin as his entrance music. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
