PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Monte Leonard (ranked 3584 p4p, 4925 weight class) and Alexander Montegriffo (ranked 397 p4p, 478 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 Alexander Montegriffo was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
