PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Waldorf Astoria (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Patrick Tiernan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Astoria's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Waltz from Les Sylphides. Tiernan has chosen DESERT STORM by Tartanic 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.
