PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jim Yankee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sam Hall (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hall is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by AC/DC - Hell's Bells. 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 Sam Hall was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
