PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Armas Kuusisto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Meodread Magas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kuusisto's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, System of a down - Chop Suey. Magas has chosen Europe - The Final Countdown 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.
