PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Daiyan Valdes (ranked 1764 p4p, 103 weight class) and Khuchtei Bokhchuud (ranked 3105 p4p, 167 weight class). Valdes kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is a lo cubano. The crowd seem to be enjoying Bokhchuud's choice of entrance music: ErgeSholee Biste Turda. Khuchtei Bokhchuud is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
