PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Martin Eyre (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Albert Albert (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Eyre comes into the arena with Domination by Pantera blaring out of the sound system. Albert is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Godsmack!. 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.
