PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jaakko Yrttiseppa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eric Lynch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Yrttiseppa might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Finnish tango - Kohtalon tango. Lynch is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Wild Thing. Eric Lynch 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!
