PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Merkan Killmaz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Stu Grimson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Killmaz comes to the cage accompanied by Black Blade. Grimson has chosen Omerta - Lamb of God as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
