PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Aarre Voutilainen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jeeves Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Voutilainen kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Chase Is Better Than The Catch. Smith has chosen God Save the Queen by The Sex Pistols as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Jeeves Smith has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
