PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Maro Pjetlic (ranked 1508 p4p, 1615 weight class) and Robbie Hall (ranked 75 p4p, 67 weight class). Pjetlic kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Legend. Hall has chosen Andy Shauf: The Magician 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?
