PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Brandon Longson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gegard Zaromskis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Longson comes into the arena with Oopsy daisy chipmunk blaring out of the sound system. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
