PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Dan Henderson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and BB Man (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Henderson's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, He Films The Clouds Pt.2. Man has chosen Beyonce's "Ring on it" as his entrance music. 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.
