PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Ludwig Manres (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tonto MacTavish (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Manres comes into the arena with Aqualung - Jethro Tull blaring out of the sound system. MacTavish has chosen LL Cool J - Mama Said Knock You Out as his entrance music. 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?
