PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sergey Kharinov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kaban Demidov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kharinov kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Metallica - For Whom The Bell Tolls. Demidov has chosen Basta - Mama as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Man, I cannot wait for this one!
