PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Khabib Nurmagomedov (ranked 1256 p4p, 39 weight class) and Rostam Xerxes (ranked 3382 p4p, 114 weight class). 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 Rostam Xerxes was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
