PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Thor Hammer (ranked 1623 p4p, 1149 weight class) and Yacob Nilsen (ranked 224 p4p, 167 weight class). Nilsen is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Lil Wayne - Right above it. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
