PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jarbas Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gabriel Gonzaga (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gonzaga is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Danzig - Mother. Jarbas Silva looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
