PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Edzard Ling (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Antonio Roland (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ling's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Gemüseeintopf. On his way into the ring it seems that Edzard Ling has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Edzard Ling seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
