PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ryan Dinu (ranked 206 p4p, 328 weight class) and Rect Umm (ranked 36 p4p, 50 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 Rect Umm was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
