PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between William Riker (ranked 70 p4p, 169 weight class) and Herbert Kreischer (ranked 7 p4p, 8 weight class). Riker's entrance music is In The Summertime. A fine choice. Kreischer has chosen Bert Learns To Hip-Hop Dance To Post Malone as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that William Riker has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily William Riker seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
