PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Anthony Arealius (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ryu Chyn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Arealius kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Ministry Rock. Chyn has chosen I wish as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
