PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Doug Glatt (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pan Kovalskii (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kovalskii has chosen Basta- Sansara 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 Pan Kovalskii was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
