PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Comte De Turenne (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Baraona (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). De Turenne comes into the arena with Dark Tranquility- Final Resistance blaring out of the sound system. 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 John Baraona was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
