PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Aydan The Wandering Spirit (ranked 306 p4p, 287 weight class) and Don Bronson (ranked 49 p4p, 47 weight class). The Wandering Spirit's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Wichita Lineman. Bronson is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Glass Candy. 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?
