PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Baba Yaga (ranked 1011 p4p, 977 weight class) and Duncan Farquharson (ranked 154 p4p, 146 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Baba Yaga has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Baba Yaga seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
