PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Virgil Earp (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dr iLL (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). 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 Dr iLL was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
