PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Brian Burns (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Michel Teló (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Burns comes into the arena with Rock Master Scott & The Dynamic Three - The Roof Is On Fire blaring out of the sound system. The crowd seem to be enjoying Teló's choice of entrance music: Michel Telo - Ai se eu te pego. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
