PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Antonio Herta (ranked 4908 p4p, 0 weight class) and Henry Lancaster (ranked 2895 p4p, 0 weight class). Lancaster has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
