PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Kyle Le Blanc (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and El Chihuahua (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Le Blanc might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to I Know It's Over - By The Smiths. Chihuahua is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Cypress Hill - Rise Up. 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?
