PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jon Aldo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Krokodil Zelenij (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Aldo's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Dropkick Murphys - I'm Shipping Up To Boston. Zelenij has chosen Eminem - Evil Deeds as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
