PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gray Potter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kevin Khasm (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Potter kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Biggie Smalls - Victory. The crowd seem to be enjoying Khasm's choice of entrance music: Kickstart My Heart. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
