PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between El Chingon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Horatio Hypno (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chingon's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, "Above the Clouds" By Gang Starr. Hypno has chosen Harvester of sorrow 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.
