PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Rickson Araujo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rain Hernandez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hernandez has chosen Crush 'Em by Megadeth 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 Rain Hernandez was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
