PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Eric Ashton (ranked 1364 p4p, 183 weight class) and Mentor Guruland (ranked 1301 p4p, 176 weight class). Ashton's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Zombie Nation. Eric Ashton looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
