PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Hari Krishna (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ragnar Helgarson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Krishna kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Flaw - Whole. 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.
