PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Kalle Reinikainen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Stan TheMan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Reinikainen kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Turmion Kätilöt - Verta ja Lihaa (Proteus Mental remix). TheMan has chosen Get Up Again as his entrance music. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
