PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Alex John Conor Burns (ranked 157 p4p, 22 weight class) and Stan Judea (ranked 299 p4p, 43 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Burns might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Body Head Bangerz feat. Lil' Boosie & Young Bleed - I Smoke, I Drank. Judea has chosen I want to be a woman - Monty Python as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
