PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Flex Nuisance (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Chimpo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nuisance's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, High Hopes by Frank Sinatra. Chimpo has chosen On The Darkside as his entrance music. Nuisance has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. Flex Nuisance looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
