PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rankka Ankka (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ishmael Boorg (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ankka's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Milk - The Knife Song. Boorg has chosen In the Jailhouse Now 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.
