PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between David Wuzz (ranked 408 p4p, 65 weight class) and Johnny Justice (ranked 456 p4p, 71 weight class). Justice has chosen Montana of 300 - Daddy Used to be the Plug 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 Johnny Justice was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
