PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Karockas Thibodeaux (ranked 591 p4p, 1490 weight class) and David Hanen (ranked 88 p4p, 198 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 David Hanen was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
