PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Doug Pattersson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alexander Puhovin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pattersson's entrance music is The Banana song Peel Banana. A fine choice. 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 Alexander Puhovin was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
