PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Arjan Bhullar (ranked 415 p4p, 56 weight class) and Edward Stoker (ranked 48 p4p, 8 weight class). Bhullar comes to the cage accompanied by Lords of the Underground - Chief Rocka. Stoker is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Let There Be Rock by AC/DC. 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 Edward Stoker was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
