PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Boba Fett (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kari Taalasmaa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Taalasmaa has chosen Jore Marjaranta - Tunteisiin as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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?
