PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Wanderlei Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Meru Otonashi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Silva kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Sandstorm. Otonashi has chosen Kuusou Rumba (GSZS OP1 Ver.) as his entrance music. Wanderlei Silva could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Meru Otonashi's chin.
