PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Philip Dale (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bobby Lee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Dale might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Try A Little Tenderness. Lee comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Kid Rock - American Badass kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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 Bobby Lee was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
