PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Kevin Love (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cub Galloway (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Love's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Afterworld. Galloway is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Jump Around by House of Pain. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
