PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jan Thomas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jamie Foster (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Thomas's entrance music is Get Up and Dance by Jan Thomas. A fine choice. On his way into the cage it seems that Jan Thomas has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Jan Thomas seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
