PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Charles Grace (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ozzy McKane (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Grace's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?. McKane has chosen SAIL - AWOLNATION as his entrance music. 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?
