PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rama Chulalongkorn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Knock Yaazzout (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chulalongkorn kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is "Sagat's Theme," by Takayuki Aihara. Yaazzout is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: act a fool remix. 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.
