PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Donny Bag (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Boris Brown (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bag kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is living dead girl - rob zomie. Donny Bag looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
