PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Cactus Horn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Danny Zuckor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Zuckor is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Dropkick Murphys - "I'm Shipping Up to Boston". Zuckor has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Danny Zuckor will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
