PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bruce Lee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lance Erickson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Erickson's choice of entrance music: Of Wolf And Man - Metallica. On his way into the cage it seems that Bruce Lee has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Bruce Lee seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
