PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Petr Sirotek (ranked 24639 p4p, 3824 weight class) and Thomas Thomsen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sirotek kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Neil Diamond - Sweet Caroline. 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 Thomas Thomsen was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
