PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Pablo Noriega (ranked 2720 p4p, 231 weight class) and Marcin Vanna (ranked 3357 p4p, 0 weight class). Noriega comes to the cage accompanied by Cypress Hill - Loco En El Coco. 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 Marcin Vanna was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
