PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Evgeni Lomachenko (ranked 1835 p4p, 1300 weight class) and Paw Paw Udomprecha (ranked 105 p4p, 73 weight class). Lomachenko's entrance music is Seryoga - King Ring. A fine choice. Udomprecha has chosen Danger as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Evgeni Lomachenko has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Evgeni Lomachenko seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
