PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Raymond Granger (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Seamus OShaughnessy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). OShaughnessy has chosen Black Friday Rule by Flogging Molly as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Seamus OShaughnessy was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
