PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Post Wheat (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Henry Hillbilly (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hillbilly has chosen I Love Country Music (And I'd Rather Fight Than Switch) as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
