PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Eskil Lemmelin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Andre Mullard (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lemmelin kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Fönt ja en körv. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Andre Mullard was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
