PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jake Tyler (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Karl Hungus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tyler kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Yep. Hungus has chosen Marilyn Manson - Sweet Dreams as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Karl Hungus has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
