PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between JP Bridges (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Felix Aguinaga (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bridges comes to the cage accompanied by I-F - Space Invaders Are Smoking Grass. Aguinaga has chosen Madrina as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that JP Bridges has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily JP Bridges seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
