PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Luis Maestre (ranked 471 p4p, 354 weight class) and Dimitri Svyatogor (ranked 10 p4p, 6 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Luis Maestre has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Luis Maestre seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
