PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Nichi Hong (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Antero Wursty (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hong kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Hong Entrance Song. Wursty has chosen Megadeth - The Skull Beneath The Skin as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
