PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mohamed Houssam (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ivan Poddubny (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Houssam kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Meek Mill feat Rick Ross - I'm A Boss. The crowd seem to be enjoying Poddubny's choice of entrance music: Champion Of The Champions. Ivan Poddubny is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
