PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Zap Morten (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jim Rogers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Morten kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Some Bodies Gonna Get It. On his way into the cage it seems that Zap Morten has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Zap Morten seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
