PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Min-Sik Song (ranked 67 p4p, 90 weight class) and Teke Bamalog (ranked 9 p4p, 11 weight class). Song kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Akatsuki. Bamalog has chosen Stubborn Robot Original Nuttah as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
