PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Andrej Kabak (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jan Paulsen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kabak's entrance music is Alestorm - Keelhauled. A fine choice. Paulsen is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Berserkergang. 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.
