PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bob Buckinham (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Zoran Pavicevic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pavicevic has chosen Oskolki as his entrance music. 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 Zoran Pavicevic was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
