PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Christian Neffgen (ranked 3267 p4p, 0 weight class) and Michael Page (ranked 24842 p4p, 0 weight class). 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 Michael Page was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
