PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Curtis Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tone Cross (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jackson's entrance music is I Get Money. A fine choice. On his way into the cage it seems that Curtis Jackson has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Curtis Jackson seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
