PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Kalle Reinikainen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hiro Protagonist (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Reinikainen comes to the cage accompanied by Turmion Kätilöt - Verta ja Lihaa (Proteus Mental remix). Protagonist has chosen Teenage Bottlerocket - Bigger Than Kiss 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.
