PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rafael BayawaK (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Royce Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). BayawaK comes to the cage accompanied by Dayang-dayang. 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 Royce Gracie was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
