PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Janno Gibbs (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Wolfgang Becker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gibbs's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Apocalypse Please. Becker is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Mr Boombastic. 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.
