PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Tamiwe Kamanula (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Victor Frolov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kamanula kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is LL Cool J - Mama Said Knock You Out. Frolov is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Manowar - Holy War. 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.
