PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Lucas Black (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kah Fing (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Black kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is AC/DC - Back in Black. Fing has chosen Whats My Name as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Lucas Black has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Lucas Black seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
