PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Kale Ravenal (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sakuraba Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gracie has chosen Gimme Shelter as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Kale Ravenal has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Kale Ravenal seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
