PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Hawk Fleximario (ranked 1882 p4p, 1736 weight class) and Elinho Mineiro (ranked 244 p4p, 230 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Fleximario might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Funkmeister. 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 Elinho Mineiro was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
