PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Vladimir Impaler (ranked 166 p4p, 26 weight class) and Steve Butabi (ranked 456 p4p, 65 weight class). Butabi has chosen I'm so bad (baby I don't care) as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
