PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Keith Bishop (ranked 2862 p4p, 868 weight class) and Jax Chambers (ranked 87 p4p, 26 weight class). Bishop's entrance music is Whatever. A fine choice. 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 Jax Chambers was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
