PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Brian Griffin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sergeant Peppers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Griffin kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Bag of Weed. Peppers has chosen Lip Gloss and Black--as made famous by Atreyu as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
