PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tiff Sanford (ranked 1853 p4p, 2101 weight class) and Jimmy Clubber (ranked 225 p4p, 249 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Sanford might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Body Count - Body Count's in the House. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
