PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Brock Duncan (ranked 5886 p4p, 5181 weight class) and Harry Francis (ranked 298 p4p, 285 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 Harry Francis was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
