PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Yuya Inoue (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Quinton Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Inoue comes to the cage accompanied by Viikate - Viina, terva & hauta. Jackson is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Can't be Touched. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
