PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Hiro Manowaru (ranked 7 p4p, 56 weight class) and Carlos Ruas (ranked 1 p4p, 4 weight class). Manowaru kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Lay Down. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
