PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between FannyPack SissyPants (ranked 41 p4p, 1 weight class) and Aapeli Vipunen (ranked 222 p4p, 8 weight class). SissyPants kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Scooters. Vipunen has chosen Solonen ft. Kosola - LÄSKI! as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
