PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Cael Sanderson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Wykyd Dall (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sanderson comes into the arena with Not Affraid- Eminem blaring out of the sound system. Dall has chosen Attitude 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 Wykyd Dall was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
