PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Brian Blessed (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Atilla Khan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Blessed's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Alive - P.O.D. Khan has chosen Killing In The Name as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. This should be a great matchup!
