PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between John The Pitbull (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marcus Miller (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The Pitbull comes into the arena with Three 6 Mafia - It's a Fight blaring out of the sound system. The crowd seem to be enjoying Miller's choice of entrance music: Ice Cube - Gangsta Rap Made Me Do It. 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 Marcus Miller was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
