PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gaius Julius Caesar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Leonard Washington (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Caesar 's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Warriors of the World. Washington has chosen Snuffed Out by Streetlife as his entrance music. Gaius Julius Caesar had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 266.1lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. 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 Leonard Washington was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
