PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Fortunado Sampaio (ranked 729 p4p, 1000 weight class) and Brabus Tonal (ranked 119 p4p, 156 weight class). Sampaio's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Corre Riba Corre Baixo. Brabus Tonal told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
