PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Chris Steve (ranked 61 p4p, 131 weight class) and Wolfgang Brandstatter (ranked 9 p4p, 17 weight class). Steve's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, TWIST HIS D*CK. Brandstatter has chosen The Maestro as his entrance music. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Wolfgang Brandstatter was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
