PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Khoren Abraham (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Yrjo Jarvinen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Abraham comes to the cage accompanied by Derezzed - Daft Punk. Jarvinen has chosen Frederik - Harva meistä on rautaa as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Khoren Abraham looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
