PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Oscar Barrera (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Josh Posey (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Barrera comes to the cage accompanied by ERA - Enae Volare Mezzo. 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 Josh Posey was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
