PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mark Antony (ranked 2340 p4p, 1610 weight class) and Rakeem Marley (ranked 304 p4p, 212 weight class). Marley has chosen Damian Marley - Welcome to Jamrock 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 Rakeem Marley was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
