PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mickey Felipe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nick Cave (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Felipe's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Ain't That A Kick In The Head. The crowd seem to be enjoying Cave's choice of entrance music: Me And The Devil. Nick Cave will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
