PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Marshall Mathers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Abel Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mathers kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Anthem of Kings. Silva has chosen Iced Earth - Harbinger of Fate as his entrance music. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
