PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Athan Stamatis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Namiska Button (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stamatis's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Lose Yourself. 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 Namiska Button was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
