PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Devan Pratt (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ash Stoner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pratt's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Static X (Destroyer). Stoner has chosen Why Can't We Be Friends? as his entrance music. 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.
