PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jack Ripper (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Baekjae Kim (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kim has chosen CANON in D Korean Version (with gayageum) as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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 Baekjae Kim was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
