PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Magus Helmstead (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and David Tomasseu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Helmstead's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Blitzkill. Tomasseu is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Till I Collapse-Eminem. 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.
