PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tom Rivet (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marcus Davis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rivet's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Hol' Up. Davis has chosen House of Pain - Jump Around 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 Marcus Davis was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
