PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Ludwig Van Normayen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Donald Stewart (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Van Normayen's entrance music is Vader - Sword of The Witcher. A fine choice. Stewart comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Celly cel - Its Goin Down Tonight 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 Donald Stewart was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
