PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jarkko Ruutu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and All or Nothing (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ruutu's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, YMCA. Nothing has chosen Vegan Reich - The Way It Is as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Jarkko Ruutu has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
