PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tong Bo (ranked 4265 p4p, 498 weight class) and Royce Gracie (ranked 5610 p4p, 577 weight class). Gracie has chosen Olha a Explosão 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.
