PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Arturo Del Torro (ranked 2125 p4p, 1886 weight class) and Sean O Malley (ranked 208 p4p, 186 weight class). O Malley is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Goat Talk- Sugar Sean. On his way into the cage it seems that Arturo Del Torro has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Arturo Del Torro seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
