PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Antonio Manoel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Damien Sanders (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Manoel comes to the cage accompanied by Hino do Flamengo. 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 Damien Sanders was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
