PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between John Rekis (ranked 15085 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bjorn Ragnarsson (ranked 2268 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Rekis might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to AC/DC - Thunderstruck. Ragnarsson has chosen Anja - Where I Am as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
