PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ting Yan Wang (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Andrei East (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Wang might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Minority - Green Day. East is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by AC/DC - Highway To Hell . 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.
