PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Worf Mogh (ranked 50 p4p, 37 weight class) and Lennart Hohenthal (ranked 5 p4p, 4 weight class). Mogh kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Pantera - Use My Third Arm. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
