PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Abraham Donowitz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dan Price (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Donowitz kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is JEW FLOW. Price has chosen Black Label Society - Bleed for Me as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
