PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Samson Miodek (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vyacheslav Romanov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Miodek comes to the cage accompanied by Radioactive. 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 Vyacheslav Romanov was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
