PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dick Tanner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Josh Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tanner comes into the arena with Mr. Tanner 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 Josh Jones was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
