PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ed Larson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Malcolm Lancaster (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Larson kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Headstrong by Trapt. On his way into the cage it seems that Ed Larson has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Ed Larson seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
