PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mocny Vlad (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nathan James (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). James is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by a great song. 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 Nathan James was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
