PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Major Lazer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pan Goatboy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lazer's entrance music is Major Lazer - Pon De Floor. A fine choice. Goatboy is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Bill Hicks - Goat boy. 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.
