PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Phil Taylor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sam Kensington (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Taylor's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Pantera - Mouth For War. Sam Kensington told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
