PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between David Steel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ben Stien (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Steel's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Kollegah - Bossaura. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
