PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ronnie Coleman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Poncho Rojo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Coleman might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Don't Tread On Me By Metallica. Rojo is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by War is my destiny. On his way into the cage it seems that Ronnie Coleman has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Ronnie Coleman seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
