PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Tommy Shelby (ranked 2901 p4p, 5187 weight class) and Shawn Michaels (ranked 401 p4p, 575 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 Shawn Michaels was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
