PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Anton Chigurh (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cain Marko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chigurh's entrance music is Kvelertak-Mjod. A fine choice. Marko comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Get Back - Ludacris kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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.
