PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Pertti Kiilopaa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Onanias Runkman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kiilopaa's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Extreme Ways. Runkman has chosen Anderson Silva DANCING Justin Bieber SONG as his entrance music. 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?
