PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Knut Paulsen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Michael Vaugh (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Vaugh has chosen Bad Day as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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 Michael Vaugh was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
