PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Skyler Petersen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Passacantando Passalaqua (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Passalaqua is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Bunch of Soldiers. On his way into the cage it seems that Skyler Petersen has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Skyler Petersen seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
