PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Alain Aspect (ranked 1030 p4p, 3330 weight class) and Mark Beneke (ranked 140 p4p, 402 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Alain Aspect has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Alain Aspect seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
