PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Carlos Ruas (ranked 489 p4p, 72 weight class) and Wild Turkey (ranked 912 p4p, 127 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 Wild Turkey was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
