PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mark Pace (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pit Bull (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bull is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Let The Bodies Hit The Floor. 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 Pit Bull was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
