PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dave Batista (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Coolpunch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Batista's entrance music is rock star. A fine choice. Coolpunch has chosen Man From Manila by Francis Magalona as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
