PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Sultan Ramirez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hamms Beer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ramirez's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Down with the sickness. Beer has chosen Hostile Mass as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
