Galaxy 76: Stargazer PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Severi Suhonen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jason Lee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Suhonen's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Lentävä Kalakukko. The crowd seem to be enjoying Lee's choice of entrance music: Wiley - Take That. On his way into the cage it seems that Severi Suhonen has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Severi Suhonen seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Jonas Putin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Doug McDonald (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Putin comes to the cage accompanied by Ruudolf - Leijonakuningaslaulu. 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 Doug McDonald was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
