Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jackson Pullem (ranked 6185 p4p, 4968 weight class) and Laurynas Urbanovicius (ranked 638 p4p, 564 weight class). Urbanovicius comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Volbeat - A Warrior's Call kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Laurynas Urbanovicius was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
