PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Demyan Pulaski (ranked 1701 p4p, 801 weight class) and Diego Lopez (ranked 199 p4p, 99 weight class). Pulaski's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Dan Farber - "Don't Touch". Lopez is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by 2PAC - All Eyez on Me. Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!
