PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Serge Ibaka (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Daniel Dennis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ibaka's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, S.A.R.S. - Lutka. Dennis has chosen Lit as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
