PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Chris Sharpe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bill Bradski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bradski has chosen Ikaruga as his entrance music. Bill Bradski struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 171.7lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. 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 Bill Bradski was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
