PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between V Two (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Luiz Miller (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Two comes into the arena with Sweep The Leg blaring out of the sound system. The crowd seem to be enjoying Miller's choice of entrance music: Mama said Knock You Out. 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 Luiz Miller was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
