PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Rikkard Hanson (ranked 3866 p4p, 1395 weight class) and Uestus Johnston (ranked 437 p4p, 178 weight class). Johnston comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Clint Eastwood- Gorillaz kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Rikkard Hanson looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
