PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Zygmunt Krol (ranked 1747 p4p, 2106 weight class) and Ultima Kekkonen (ranked 199 p4p, 245 weight class). Krol kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Hammer Smashed Face Live. Ultima Kekkonen 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!
