PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Osmo Ikola (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and George Dickson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ikola comes to the cage accompanied by Muistan sua Elaine. Dickson has chosen SMC Hoodrats as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
