PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Esteban Rodrigo Estiarte (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Timo Vasconcelos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Vasconcelos has chosen Sveriges elit 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 Timo Vasconcelos was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
