PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Julius Lew (ranked 171 p4p, 229 weight class) and Derrick Bradley (ranked 21 p4p, 31 weight class). Bradley has chosen Sudbury Saturday Night as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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 Derrick Bradley was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
