PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Alexei Chatzikomninos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Christer Pettersson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pettersson has chosen Korn - Did My Time 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 Christer Pettersson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
