PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between David Choke (ranked 150 p4p, 99 weight class) and Chaikka Chai (ranked 23 p4p, 17 weight class). Chai comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Dead Man Walking kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! On his way into the cage it seems that David Choke has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily David Choke seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
