PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Takeru Kyle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Igor Svetnela (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kyle's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, I Like to Move It. Svetnela has chosen Slayer - Angel of Death as his entrance music. 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.
