PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mirko Filipovic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Rockefeller (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Filipovic's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, duran duran - wild boys. Rockefeller has chosen Balls to the Wall as his entrance music. Mirko Filipovic had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.3lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
