PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Buffalo Marley (ranked 264 p4p, 38 weight class) and Conrad Tama Ginty (ranked 138 p4p, 16 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Marley might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Welcome to Jamrock. Tama Ginty has chosen Wear Your Love Like Heaven as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
