PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jonny Hunt (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Thomas Stark (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hunt comes to the cage accompanied by Ace of Spades by Motorhead. Stark comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Cmon Feel The Noise kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Thomas Stark was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
