PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Slim Crowe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Zeus Obliteratii (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Crowe comes to the cage accompanied by Noah Gundersen - Oh Death. Obliteratii is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Ride of The Uber Valkyries. 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.
