PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Thunder Lips (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Saager Dhaliwal (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lips comes into the arena with Burning down the House by Talking Heads blaring out of the sound system. Dhaliwal has chosen Swagga Like Us as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
