PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Harley King (ranked 1323 p4p, 1095 weight class) and Mike McGuire (ranked 167 p4p, 140 weight class). McGuire is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Jekyll And Hyde. 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 Mike McGuire was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
