PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Benjamin Sigfridsson (ranked 1940 p4p, 257 weight class) and Jerome Seinfeld (ranked 725 p4p, 107 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 Jerome Seinfeld was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
