PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Klayton King (ranked 2724 p4p, 1647 weight class) and Gunnar Skog (ranked 314 p4p, 217 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Skog's choice of entrance music: Another One Bites the Dust - Queen. On his way into the ring it seems that Klayton King has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Klayton King seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
