PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Michael Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rabban Harkonnen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Jones might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Professor Green - Monster . Harkonnen has chosen Johnny Cash - God's Gonna Cut You Down as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Michael Jones could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Rabban Harkonnen's chin.
