PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Chris Uno (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Harold Kumar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Uno's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, L.L Cool J - Mama Said Knock You Out. On his way into the cage it seems that Chris Uno has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Chris Uno seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
