PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Leroy Michel (ranked 3065 p4p, 3994 weight class) and Mikhail Borta (ranked 343 p4p, 416 weight class). Michel kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Good bye horses - Q Lazzarus. Borta has chosen HARMASAR "DAOI" as his entrance music. Mikhail Borta will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
