PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Shang Chi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Barry Scott (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Scott has chosen Bang - By Barry Scott as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Shang Chi has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Shang Chi seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
