PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Anthony Petruzelli (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Monkey Man (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Petruzelli comes to the cage accompanied by How Could I Just Kill A Man. Man has chosen move bitch-ludacris as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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?
