PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Minerva Wulf (ranked 626 p4p, 2307 weight class) and Killer Kidd (ranked 48 p4p, 151 weight class). Wulf's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Sanctus Dominus. On his way into the cage it seems that Minerva Wulf has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Minerva Wulf seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
