PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Cerberus Dionisy (ranked 144 p4p, 245 weight class) and Risto Rautio (ranked 29 p4p, 41 weight class). Dionisy's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Voodoo. Rautio has chosen mickey avalon 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.
