PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between William Spud (ranked 285 p4p, 256 weight class) and Hans Hermann Hoppe (ranked 39 p4p, 34 weight class). Spud's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Havana. Hoppe has chosen Wind of Change as his entrance music. 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?
