PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Akil Paschal (ranked 1019 p4p, 969 weight class) and Mac Anudo (ranked 141 p4p, 138 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 Mac Anudo was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
