PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jeremiah Kidd (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hawk Henson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Henson has chosen Highway To Hell By ACDC 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 Hawk Henson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
