PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Roofus Bumfight (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Roy Solomon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bumfight kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is Amazing by Kanye West. Solomon comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Silence kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Roy Solomon was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
