PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Brock Lesner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Steve VanDerbeek (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Lesner might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to down with the sickness. Steve VanDerbeek is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples.
