PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mark Hades (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jack Mack (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hades's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Can't Stop. Mack has chosen Ships in the night-Mat Kearney 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 Jack Mack was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
