PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight kickboxing rules bout between Dill Nickle (ranked 1665 p4p, 2713 weight class) and Fung Hao Ming (ranked 166 p4p, 272 weight class). Hao Ming is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by New Authentic - Places You Go. On his way into the ring it seems that Dill Nickle has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Dill Nickle seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
