PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Danny Noel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ricky Steiner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Noel's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Street Gang. Steiner is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Steiner. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
