PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Dennis Washington (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Patricio Tavares (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Washington's entrance music is The Show Goes On-Lupe Fiasco. A fine choice. Tavares has chosen Armin van Buuren - Sail as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
