PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Roman Emelianov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sergey Gribov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Emelianov's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Аркона - Call of Battle. The crowd seem to be enjoying Gribov's choice of entrance music: "Machete" - Theme Song . I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Sergey Gribov was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
