PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Nikolai Itchenko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tony Brewer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Brewer is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Tony . 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 Tony Brewer was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
