PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Cal Klos (ranked 1171 p4p, 1293 weight class) and Jeff Mma (ranked 182 p4p, 196 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Klos might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Our Father Enki. 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 Jeff Mma was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
