PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bob Bronte (ranked 194 p4p, 97 weight class) and Super Salajudin Ii (ranked 16 p4p, 6 weight class). Bronte's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Buffalo Charge by Dub Phizix and Strategy. Salajudin Ii is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: На белом. 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.
