PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Tony Brown (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aigars Senko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Brown comes into the arena with TNT by AC DC blaring out of the sound system. The crowd seem to be enjoying Senko's choice of entrance music: will.i.am T.H.E. (The Hardest Ever) . 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.
