PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kvame Zulu (ranked 3366 p4p, 352 weight class) and Bodgan Petrov (ranked 4199 p4p, 433 weight class). Zulu comes to the cage accompanied by Big Badaboom. 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 Bodgan Petrov was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
