PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jorge Lopez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jimmy Snuka (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lopez comes to the cage accompanied by Party Down. Snuka comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Missy Elliot - The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly) kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Jorge Lopez looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
