PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Hanzov Wright (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kane Wade (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Wright comes to the cage accompanied by The Final Countdown by Europe. The crowd seem to be enjoying Wade's choice of entrance music: System of a down - This cocaine make me feel like I'm on this song. 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?
