PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ansgar Axelsson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Keimah Animai (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Axelsson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to one bourbon one scotch one beer. The crowd seem to be enjoying Animai's choice of entrance music: Rise - Flobots. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
