PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Yves Trudeau (ranked 6571 p4p, 1151 weight class) and Israel Hands (ranked 606 p4p, 153 weight class). Hands has chosen A Collection of Sea Shanties as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Yves Trudeau has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Yves Trudeau seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
