PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Gary Day (ranked 4615 p4p, 408 weight class) and Frankie Hollywood (ranked 1129 p4p, 127 weight class). Day's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Last minute - Great day to choke you out. 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?
