PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Masaharu Homma (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Graham Wellington (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Wellington's choice of entrance music: Scary. 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 Graham Wellington was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
