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