PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Earl Sweatpants (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Daryl Palumbo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sweatpants kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Earl - Earl Sweatshirt. Palumbo has chosen Glassjaw - Cosmopolitan Blood Loss as his entrance music. Earl Sweatpants looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
