PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Braden Turk (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eriku Landstrimma (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Turk comes to the cage accompanied by Status Quo - Deeper and Down. 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 Eriku Landstrimma was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
