PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Radamez Rodriguez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Soy Casanova (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Casanova is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Laid to Rest by Lamb of God. 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 Soy Casanova was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
