PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tom Drogo (ranked 23220 p4p, 0 weight class) and Arvo Laar (ranked 7300 p4p, 556 weight class). Laar has chosen some random 90's estonia dance song i found on youtube 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 Arvo Laar was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
