PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Edmond Honda (ranked 535 p4p, 201 weight class) and Zeta Knox (ranked 20 p4p, 7 weight class). Honda comes into the arena with E. Honda Stage Theme Extended blaring out of the sound system. Knox has chosen Five Finger Death Punch | Bad Company as his entrance music. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
