Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between JC The Easter Bunny (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jayar Guida (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The Easter Bunny's entrance music is Hipitus Hopitus. A fine choice. Guida has chosen Taste of Ink as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that JC The Easter Bunny has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily JC The Easter Bunny seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
