PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Devon Randlecan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marcos Ruaz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ruaz is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by My Unborn - Tupac. On his way into the cage it seems that Devon Randlecan has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Devon Randlecan seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
