PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Buster Glover (ranked 14 p4p, 85 weight class) and Wusan Ritori (ranked 2 p4p, 13 weight class). Ritori is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Woo-Hah!! Got You All In Check. On his way into the cage it seems that Buster Glover has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Buster Glover seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
