PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Airton Silverio (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kazimir Evgeni (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Silverio kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Cranberries - Zombie. Evgeni has chosen Bones - Trash as his entrance music. Airton Silverio is staring across the ring at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
