PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Gervais Lavigne (ranked 499 p4p, 637 weight class) and Braynas Hlervu (ranked 63 p4p, 78 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 Braynas Hlervu was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
