PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Baldur Torsten (ranked 969 p4p, 1070 weight class) and Aatreya Mahrishi (ranked 137 p4p, 154 weight class). Torsten comes into the arena with Temple of Odin blaring out of the sound system. The crowd seem to be enjoying Mahrishi's choice of entrance music: On the Precipe of Defeat. 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?
