PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ay One (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and TJ Welsh (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Welsh is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Lets Have A War. 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 TJ Welsh was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
