PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Edson Garcia (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Farrow (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Farrow has chosen The Final Countdown 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 Johnny Farrow was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
