Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Death Row (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mark Aronoff (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Row kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Who Da Champion. Aronoff has chosen Here Comes the Pain by Slayer as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Death Row has a significant reach advantage - let's see if he can make it count.
