PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Duncan McAlister (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Brock Lesnar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think McAlister might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Althia and Donna - Uptown Top Ranking. 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 Brock Lesnar was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
