PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Tom Eli (ranked 2294 p4p, 5820 weight class) and Dillon Hardman (ranked 292 p4p, 548 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Hardman's choice of entrance music: Hang ‘Em High. On his way into the cage it seems that Tom Eli has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Tom Eli seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
