PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Terry Johnson (ranked 3826 p4p, 0 weight class) and Raja Ohri (ranked 6209 p4p, 0 weight class). Johnson's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Hans Zimmer - The Last Samurai Theme. Ohri has chosen The Next Episode as his entrance music. 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 Raja Ohri was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
