PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Henry Olonga (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and David Yochanan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Olonga's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, For Whom The Bell Tolls - Metallica. Yochanan is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Know your Enemy. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
