PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Roman Lenkov (ranked 2879 p4p, 3544 weight class) and Diego Farias (ranked 270 p4p, 323 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 Diego Farias was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
