PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Marty Mendes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alex Dragon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dragon has chosen Taio Cruz-Dynamite 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 Alex Dragon was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
