PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Tomi Atomi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Toby Jay Wadenah (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Atomi's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Stratovarius - Abyss Of Your Eyes. Wadenah has chosen Enter Sandman 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?
