PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Tin Mann (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ryan Eastmond (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Eastmond has chosen Nelly- Here Comes The Boom 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 Ryan Eastmond was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
