PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Van Brock (ranked 1812 p4p, 2897 weight class) and Huug Schlepper (ranked 118 p4p, 167 weight class). Schlepper is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: AC/DC - Highway to Hell. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
