PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Erno Porilainen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mike Carter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Porilainen's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Simo Salminen - Pornolaulu. Carter has chosen La Roux - In For The Kill as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Mike Carter has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
