PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Harold Howard (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sigfredo Pineda (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Howard's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Eddie Money - Take me home tonight. The crowd seem to be enjoying Pineda's choice of entrance music: Now or Never by Dope. 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.
