PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Bruno Davol (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marcus Lawrence (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Davol comes to the cage accompanied by Rammstein - Links 2 3 4. Lawrence has chosen Overture as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Bruno Davol has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Bruno Davol seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
