PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Mikey Day (ranked 2144 p4p, 627 weight class) and Domonic Dilbrandt (ranked 126 p4p, 83 weight class). Dilbrandt comes into a darkened arena with his song building. The Champ is Here kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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 Domonic Dilbrandt was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
