PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gabriel Grey (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Olaf Mellberg (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Grey comes into the arena with Coming Home by Alter Bridge blaring out of the sound system. Mellberg has chosen Biffy Clyro - That Golden Rule 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.
