PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Paul Welch (ranked 2831 p4p, 4027 weight class) and Ben Dover (ranked 366 p4p, 488 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Paul Welch has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Paul Welch seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
