PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Hal Jordan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lauri Torni (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Jordan might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Dawn of the Dead by Does it Offend you, yeah?. Torni is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Gallowbraid - Ashen Eidolon. 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.
