PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Oki Zuki (ranked 1710 p4p, 3160 weight class) and Aimo Surakka (ranked 204 p4p, 349 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 Aimo Surakka was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
