PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Nathan Fedorov (ranked 1128 p4p, 1161 weight class) and Taz FeoTeo (ranked 163 p4p, 170 weight class). Fedorov's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Miyagi & Эндшпиль feat. Рем Дигга - I Got Love. 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 Taz FeoTeo was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
