PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Danny Knighton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Louis Evans (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Knighton's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Move by Thousand Foot Krutch. Evans has chosen Panasonic Youth by The Dillinger Escape Plan as his entrance music. Louis Evans told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
