PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Edson Jonas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Derrick Yeung (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Yeung has chosen Fluffy 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 Derrick Yeung was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
