PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gristle McThornbody (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pekka Perkele (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). McThornbody kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Tame. Perkele has chosen Danzig - I Don't Mind The Pain as his entrance music. 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 Pekka Perkele was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
