PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Xi Dong (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Scotty RoRo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dong kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Long Dong Jam . RoRo has chosen Balls to the Wall as his entrance music. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Scotty RoRo was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
