PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Sun Tzu (ranked 3690 p4p, 1498 weight class) and Jackson Jones (ranked 311 p4p, 140 weight class). Tzu comes to the cage accompanied by The HU - Wolf Totem feat. Jacoby Shaddix of Papa Roach. 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 Jackson Jones was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
