PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Kayden Li (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Takeya Morimoto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Kayden Li has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Kayden Li seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
