PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Matt Freeman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Viktor Kafka (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Freeman kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Real American. Kafka has chosen Welcome to the Jungle as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Viktor Kafka is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
