PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Arn Anderson (ranked 625 p4p, 26 weight class) and Mongolian Muslim (ranked 847 p4p, 32 weight class). Anderson comes into the arena with Thunderstruck-by ACDC blaring out of the sound system. Muslim has chosen Modern Mongolian Music - Sandy Desert as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Mongolian Muslim will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
