PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gerbert Bryant (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Julien Touret (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bryant's entrance music is I just wanna. A fine choice. Touret has chosen La Valse d'Amelie 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.
