PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Chuck Perry (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Imran Shaah (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Perry kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Cara Dillon vs. 2 Devine - Black Is the Colour (Coco & Green Remix). Shaah is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Time to Say Goodbye. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
