PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ghengis Congo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dick Ding (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Congo's entrance music is Ghostface - After the Smoke is Clear. A fine choice. Ding is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Mortal Kombat. 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.
