PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Pate Boxeri (ranked 470 p4p, 2529 weight class) and Kyoji Horiguchi (ranked 41 p4p, 167 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 Kyoji Horiguchi was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
