PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Meldrick Tyson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jack Kessler (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kessler has chosen Yattering - Chase of Thoughts as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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 Jack Kessler was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
