PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jason Jay (ranked 6950 p4p, 614 weight class) and Joey Freshwater (ranked 23703 p4p, 640 weight class). Freshwater has chosen Nas - The World is Your's 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 Joey Freshwater was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
