PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Rigoberto Lamas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jerry Seinfeld (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Lamas might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Brazilian National Anthem. Jerry Seinfeld told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
