PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Yannick Sakala (ranked 2705 p4p, 3676 weight class) and Doug Williams (ranked 334 p4p, 430 weight class). Sakala kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Pole Pole. 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?
