PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Meodread Magas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jermaine Robinson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Magas comes to the cage accompanied by Europe - The Final Countdown. Robinson has chosen Madness - Our House as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Meodread Magas has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Meodread Magas seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
