PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Jon Halladay (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and James Jaffer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Halladay's entrance music is By the Way. A fine choice. Jaffer has chosen DubRaider- Starry Eyes 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 James Jaffer was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
