PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Leon Morrison (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Doctor Octopus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Octopus is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Morbid Angels OCTOPUSS GRIP. 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 Doctor Octopus was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
