PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Domonic Dilbrandt (ranked 4083 p4p, 2873 weight class) and Aristotle Sparbot (ranked 315 p4p, 225 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Dilbrandt might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to NO CHANCE . 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 Aristotle Sparbot was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
