PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Zakumi Jabulani (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vicky Vegas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jabulani kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is K'naan - Wavin´ flag. The crowd seem to be enjoying Vegas's choice of entrance music: The Prodigy 'Omen'. 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.
