PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Joe Murphy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Julien Touret (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Murphy kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Game of Thrones - The Rains of Castamere. Touret has chosen La Valse d'Amelie as his entrance music. Julien Touret will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
