PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sergey Telegin (ranked 621 p4p, 487 weight class) and Chris Travis (ranked 79 p4p, 63 weight class). Travis has chosen Chris Travis - Crunch Time as his entrance music. 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 Chris Travis was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
