PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Tee Bone (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bruce Banner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Bone might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Somebody's gonna get it. The crowd seem to be enjoying Banner's choice of entrance music: Pump Up The Jam. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
