PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tonaka Watawaka (ranked 4064 p4p, 157 weight class) and Evander Boston (ranked 4550 p4p, 185 weight class). Watawaka kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Native American Flute & Drums. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
