PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ruiner Barnett (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Puppy Love (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Barnett's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, canceled forever. Love is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Otherside by Mackemore X Ryan Lewis. Ruiner Barnett could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Puppy Love's chin.
