PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rodney Garcia (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Samart Payakaroon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Payakaroon comes into a darkened arena with his song building. My Balls and My Word - Geto Boys kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Both these guys are coming into the fight with injuries so let's see if that has a bearing on the fight. 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 Samart Payakaroon was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
