PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ada Reyes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and JR Adams (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Adams has chosen 'Looking For The Stone' by Dry Branch Fire Squad 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.
