PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Bernardo Cabral (ranked 565 p4p, 3503 weight class) and Stanley Reynolds (ranked 77 p4p, 418 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 Stanley Reynolds was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
