PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Hells No (ranked 1520 p4p, 789 weight class) and Dick Winters (ranked 201 p4p, 103 weight class). Winters has chosen All Along the Watchtower as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Hells No has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Hells No seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
