PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Christian Johansson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Anton Chigurh (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chigurh has chosen Paul Oakenfold - Ready Steady Go (Korean Style) as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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?
