PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Draft Beer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mikki Hiiri (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Beer's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, 300 Violin Orchestra. Hiiri has chosen LIAR as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
