PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rango Mirceno (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Salomon Diakte (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mirceno's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Battle Hymn. 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 Salomon Diakte was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
