PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Marcus Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Billy Danze (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Danze is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Handle ur Bizness by the Mash Out Possee. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
