PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Whisky Dan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Esko Jazz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dan's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, "I'm a man" by Black Strobe. Jazz is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: AC/DC - Back in Black. 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 Esko Jazz was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
