PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Eddie Faber (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jay Penn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Faber's entrance music is California Love - Tupac. A fine choice. Penn has chosen Through Struggle as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Eddie Faber has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Eddie Faber seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
