PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Matija Maestro (ranked 360 p4p, 1969 weight class) and Torn Brot (ranked 53 p4p, 248 weight class). Maestro's entrance music is Shortwire - Reconfig. A fine choice. On his way into the ring it seems that Matija Maestro has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Matija Maestro seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
