PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ty Lewis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vladmir Inemko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Inemko is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Black Sabbath - Iron Man. Inemko has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! Ty Lewis has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
