PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Barol Kedorf (ranked 2175 p4p, 230 weight class) and Lucio Francisco Carmo (ranked 2571 p4p, 254 weight class). Kedorf comes to the cage accompanied by Ostatni dzwonek. Carmo has chosen Rolling Stones - Paint it, Black as his entrance music. 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 Lucio Francisco Carmo was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
