PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Art Nikisch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Christ Molotov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nikisch's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Hero by Skillet. Art Nikisch looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
