PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Daley Bornstein (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Richie O Grady (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bornstein's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Men at Work - Land Down Under. O Grady is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by (no) Self Esteem. 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?
