PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Tor Pellinore (ranked 22674 p4p, 787 weight class) and Tarvo Jaak (ranked 9724 p4p, 711 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Pellinore might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Powerman 5000-When Worlds Collide. Jaak comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Ludacris - Move Bitch kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Tarvo Jaak is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
