PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Samm Mah (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cassius Slay (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Mah might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Fuck You Lucy - Atmosphere. Slay has chosen Wu-Tang Clan - Triumph as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
