PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Byron Derksen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ryan Brown (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Derksen might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Mindless Self Indulgence- Bitches. 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 Ryan Brown was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
