PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Bob Bob (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pedro Moreira (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Moreira has chosen Manowar _ Gods of War 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 Pedro Moreira was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
