PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Sau Minneo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lyoto Parks (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Minneo comes into the arena with PowerTrip by Monster Magnet blaring out of the sound system. On his way into the cage it seems that Sau Minneo has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Sau Minneo seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
