PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Terry Bull (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ace King (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bull kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is The Last Shadow Puppets . The crowd seem to be enjoying King's choice of entrance music: Big Chips. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
