PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dave Ysengrin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Simbo Klice (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ysengrin's entrance music is Cheeky Nandos. A fine choice. Klice has chosen THE D.O.C. - it's funky enough as his entrance music. Simbo Klice told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
