PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between What Cheem (ranked 6516 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eddie Johnson (ranked 5522 p4p, 491 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 Eddie Johnson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
