PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Edward Stoker (ranked 159 p4p, 23 weight class) and Fagell McLovin (ranked 197 p4p, 28 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Stoker might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Let There Be Rock by AC/DC. McLovin has chosen My Dick as his entrance music.
