PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between World Peace (ranked 1041 p4p, 1548 weight class) and Amakusa Saneuji (ranked 77 p4p, 108 weight class). Peace comes to the cage accompanied by Crazy. Saneuji has chosen Zen Spirit 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 Amakusa Saneuji was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
