PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Myke Bonner (ranked 1399 p4p, 1773 weight class) and Ergun Cerrahoglu (ranked 162 p4p, 205 weight class). Bonner's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Robert Tepper - Theres No Easy Way Out. Ergun Cerrahoglu told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
