PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rob Kardashian (ranked 340 p4p, 107 weight class) and Ife Edwards (ranked 50 p4p, 16 weight class). Kardashian's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Wu Tang Clan - Gravel Pit. The crowd seem to be enjoying Edwards's choice of entrance music: Damian Marley - Road to Zion. On his way into the cage it seems that Rob Kardashian has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Rob Kardashian seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
