PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Oren Hunter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rolando Garcia (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Garcia's choice of entrance music: Sound And Fury - I've Got Rabies. On his way into the cage it seems that Oren Hunter has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Oren Hunter seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
