PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Milton Blahyi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gennakin Golovdy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Blahyi's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Cowards by American Head Charge. Golovdy has chosen A New Beginning by Audiomachine as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Milton Blahyi looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
