PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Shirley Crabtree (ranked 4580 p4p, 3458 weight class) and Hung Takedo (ranked 439 p4p, 361 weight class). Crabtree's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, The Chopper - Predator Soundtrack. The crowd seem to be enjoying Takedo's choice of entrance music: Best Way To Die. 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?
