PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Christian dos Santos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Isaiah Monroe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Monroe is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Can't be Touched. 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 Isaiah Monroe was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
