PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Michel Colucci (ranked 1967 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hanny Sledgehammer (ranked 2753 p4p, 321 weight class). Colucci kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Le temps des cerises. 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.
