PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Ryan Anderson (ranked 450 p4p, 445 weight class) and Adrian Picklesbly (ranked 74 p4p, 72 weight class). Anderson's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Chase the bag (King Von). Picklesbly has chosen Angels in Heaven - Chris Rodrigues & the Spoon Lady as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both fighters will be looking to make this an exciting fight for the fans, I'm sure!
