PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dominic Gotti (ranked 777 p4p, 98 weight class) and Conor Daley (ranked 404 p4p, 58 weight class). Gotti 's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, King Of Kings. Daley is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Dropkick Murphy's - Shipping Up To Boston. 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.
