PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Gunnar Strom (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Goguryeo Kim (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Strom's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, I Need a Hero. Kim has chosen CANON in D Korean Version (with gayageum) 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.
