PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Anderson Cruz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sambo Sudoku (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Cruz comes to the ring accompanied by Rohff feat big ali - Dirty Houss. 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 Sambo Sudoku was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
