PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Chan Sung Jung (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Scorpien Rua (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jung's entrance music is Zombies. A fine choice. 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 Scorpien Rua was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
