PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Willie Connor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ace Heart (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Connor comes to the cage accompanied by Dropkick Murphys-Rocky Road To Dublin. Heart has chosen Metallica - St. Anger as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
