PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Ezekiel Broomsdale (ranked 1741 p4p, 2051 weight class) and Tommy Vercetti (ranked 231 p4p, 270 weight class). Broomsdale comes to the cage accompanied by Masta. Vercetti has chosen Vice City 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 Tommy Vercetti was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
