PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jerry Kokane (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Wilder Wein (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kokane kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Escape From the Madness . Wein has chosen Wilder Wein as his entrance music. 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?
