PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Leif Leifsson (ranked 3 p4p, 18 weight class) and Cedric De Boise (ranked 1 p4p, 4 weight class). De Boise has chosen Do Your Thing 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 Cedric De Boise was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
