PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jones Bocadillo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Psycho Sam (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bocadillo's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, "Replacement Killer" by Elephant Man. 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 Psycho Sam was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
