PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Artturi Reinikainen (ranked 197 p4p, 534 weight class) and Mate Orsic (ranked 33 p4p, 83 weight class). Reinikainen's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Viimeinen päivä. Orsic has chosen KRS One - Rappaz R. N. Dainja as his entrance music. 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?
