PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Johnny Mango (ranked 5096 p4p, 3782 weight class) and Keenwah Granes (ranked 223 p4p, 186 weight class). Granes has chosen 敢不敢 as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Johnny Mango has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Johnny Mango seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
