PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jeff Mma (ranked 1193 p4p, 960 weight class) and Cal Klos (ranked 176 p4p, 143 weight class). Klos is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Our Father Enki. 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 Cal Klos was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
