PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Shawne Merriman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kris Jenkins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Shawne Merriman has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Shawne Merriman seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
