PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Montgomery Nagendra (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tomas Pirhonen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Nagendra might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Liberty Bell - John Philip Sousa. Pirhonen is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Last Caress. Montgomery Nagendra has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
