PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Alex Evans (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rocky Estafire (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Evans's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, "Phenomenon" by Thousand Foot Krutch. Estafire has chosen Bomb Hands- Social Code as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
