PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gerbert Bryant Jr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tyler Ward (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ward has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. 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 Tyler Ward was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
