PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Chris Booger (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gabriel Rodrigues (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rodrigues has chosen Reno as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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 Gabriel Rodrigues was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
