PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Davis Marcus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Musse Hasselvall (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Marcus comes to the cage accompanied by "Princes of the Universe," by Queen. 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 Musse Hasselvall was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
