PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Vito Mazzini (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kenji Sato (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mazzini's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Wanted Man. Sato comes into a darkened arena with his song building. True Survivor - David Hasselhoff kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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.
