PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jim Kelly (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Zirry Swan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kelly kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Black Belt Jones Theme Song, you Jive Turkey!. Swan is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Blame it on my ADD. Jim Kelly could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Zirry Swan's chin.
