PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Ray Machine (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Peleke Kala (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Machine comes to the cage accompanied by Stupid KId. Kala has chosen Bring Em Out 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 Peleke Kala was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
