PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Ryan The Wrath (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Asamoah Mensah (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mensah has chosen Blue Moon 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 Asamoah Mensah was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
