PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between George Pogie (ranked 804 p4p, 349 weight class) and Janne Virtanen (ranked 107 p4p, 48 weight class). Pogie comes to the cage accompanied by Nobody’s Angel. 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 Janne Virtanen was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
