PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Joeseph Rogan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rodrigo Alvarez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Alvarez is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by I Stand Alone. 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 Rodrigo Alvarez was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
