PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Paolo Nazaire (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bill Bradski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nazaire's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Spaceape (Burial). Bradski has chosen Ikaruga 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.
