PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Kwame Redcliffe (ranked 800 p4p, 317 weight class) and Patrick Mahomes (ranked 106 p4p, 47 weight class). Redcliffe kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Close Your Eyes (And Count To F**k). There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
