PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Terrence Funk (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Phat Ho (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Funk might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Megadeth - Peace Sells (But Who's Buying?). Phat Ho has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
