PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between John Smiths (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jonny Starks (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Starks's choice of entrance music: Eye of Tiger. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
