PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Ricardo Ramirez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Burt Guth (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon!

Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the prize buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
