PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Billy Paxton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Amare Behranu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Paxton comes into the arena with Advance Australia Fair blaring out of the sound system. Behranu has chosen Ethiopian National Anthem as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
