PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Thiago Tavares (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and luis inacio (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Tavares might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Immortal Technique - Point of No Return. On his way into the cage it seems that Thiago Tavares has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Thiago Tavares seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
