PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Yuji Yamohara (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kyle Broflowski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Yamohara kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is Enter Sandman by Metallica. 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.
