PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Omnus IV (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Luca Turilli (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). IV kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Into the Fire. 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?
