PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jim Daniels (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Justin Lynch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Daniels comes to the cage accompanied by Kvelertak - Blodtørst. Lynch is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Culture Club - Do You Really Want To Hurt Me. 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 Justin Lynch was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
