PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between John Morrison (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aziz Ansari (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Morrison might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Metalingus. Ansari is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Macarena. John Morrison had a look across the cage there at his opponent. He definitely means business
