PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Vladimir Solovyev (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jules Clement (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Clement has chosen Ministère AMER - Sacrifice de Poulets as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
