PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ray Munch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Albert Hall (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hall has chosen Mama Said Knock You Out 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 Albert Hall was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
