PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gunnar Graungaard (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Agni Kapila (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Graungaard might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Wretches & Kings. The crowd seem to be enjoying Kapila's choice of entrance music: SGX - Composer. Agni Kapila told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
