PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Masutatsu Oyama (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Romolo Barros (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Oyama kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Ghosts N Stuff. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
