PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bob Brophy (ranked 845 p4p, 91 weight class) and Colin McLauhglin (ranked 657 p4p, 60 weight class). Brophy's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, The Grumpy Song. The crowd seem to be enjoying McLauhglin's choice of entrance music: What the hell are you waiting for. 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.
