PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Maximillian Xezeron (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bart Simpson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Xezeron's entrance music is Our Truth by Lacuna Coil. 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 Bart Simpson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
