PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Frank Mac (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Draught Papillia (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mac comes to the cage accompanied by Dump the Clip. Papillia has chosen I dont know what those two ladies were singing about that day 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 Draught Papillia was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
