PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Victor Johansson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eseng Lacoste (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lacoste has chosen "Red Heaven" by General Luna 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 Eseng Lacoste was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
