PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Crazy Mike (ranked 1842 p4p, 2106 weight class) and Zahar Krulov (ranked 219 p4p, 249 weight class). Mike has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
