PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kostas Mytilinaios (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lorenzo Ortiz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mytilinaios kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Sanitarium. 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?
