PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Aingot Nofud (ranked 993 p4p, 1072 weight class) and Bald Martin (ranked 138 p4p, 150 weight class). Nofud comes to the cage accompanied by Offspring - Kids Aren't Alright. The crowd seem to be enjoying Martin's choice of entrance music: I’m Bald And I Know 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?
