PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ivan Aleksander (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eks Man (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Aleksander's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Backbone - Gojira. Man comes into a darkened arena with his song building. The Prodigy 'Invaders Must Die' kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
