PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Mac Lovin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Max Steiner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lovin's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Legend Of Zelda. The crowd seem to be enjoying Steiner's choice of entrance music: Agonoize - Baeng Baeng Goodbye. On his way into the cage it seems that Mac Lovin has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Mac Lovin seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
