PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Hideo Tokoro (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Isidor Sundberg (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tokoro kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Boomtastic. 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?
