PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Dieter Schmidt (ranked 1084 p4p, 127 weight class) and Lazuran Riku (ranked 828 p4p, 95 weight class). 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 Lazuran Riku was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
