PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Dane Cook (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jacco Fresco (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Cook might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Lifeless by 12 Stones. Fresco has chosen Nas; New York State of mind 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 Jacco Fresco was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
