PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tommi Ritola (ranked 2133 p4p, 3736 weight class) and Fedor Mazepin (ranked 257 p4p, 436 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Mazepin's choice of entrance music: boom. 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 Fedor Mazepin was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
