PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ronaldo Souza (ranked 2035 p4p, 257 weight class) and Stan Shamrock (ranked 1904 p4p, 240 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 Stan Shamrock was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
