PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tauno Tolonen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nikola Dragoslav (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tolonen's entrance music is Hurt me. A fine choice. Dragoslav is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Disturbed - Indestructible. 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?
