PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Nero Padilla (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kermit Earlandson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Padilla's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Dead by Dawn by Deicide. Earlandson is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: the theme from titanic. 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.
