PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mark Kerr (ranked 73 p4p, 11 weight class) and Remy Valentine (ranked 190 p4p, 28 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Valentine's choice of entrance music: Man with the Harmonica by Ennio Morricone. Mark Kerr is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
