PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jan Puman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Raimo Tikkari (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Puman might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Lunatic Soul - Lunatic Soul. 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 Raimo Tikkari was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
