PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Tennis Tim (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and lou johnson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tim kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Gangsta bitch. Tim has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. On his way into the cage it seems that Tennis Tim has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Tennis Tim seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
