PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Hossein Vaziri (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sullivan Barera (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Vaziri's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Iron Sheik Theme. Sullivan Barera 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!
