PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Luke Skywalker (ranked 2851 p4p, 23543 weight class) and Dizzy Knox (ranked 293 p4p, 511 weight class). Skywalker's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Skywalker Theme. Knox has chosen Dizzy Gillespie | A Night In Tunisia as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
