PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Vasif Tehmezov (ranked 6039 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tank Ispa (ranked 6793 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Tehmezov might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Eminem - Phenomenal. 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 Tank Ispa was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
