CEC 118 : Taken Out PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Taavi Liisteri (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Big M (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Liisteri comes to the cage accompanied by Solid Base - I like it. On his way into the cage it seems that Taavi Liisteri has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Taavi Liisteri seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mike Carter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Paddie Ohallahan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Carter's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, La Roux - In For The Kill. Ohallahan has chosen Home For A Rest by Spirit Of The West as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
