PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Augusto Pinochet (ranked 2630 p4p, 4191 weight class) and Gordon Mundi (ranked 291 p4p, 439 weight class). Pinochet kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is I Need a Pinochet. The crowd seem to be enjoying Mundi's choice of entrance music: Swallow The Sun - Hold This Woe. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
