PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Glenn Gunn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tyler Harwood (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gunn kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is AC DC - Big Gun. The crowd seem to be enjoying Harwood's choice of entrance music: I Walk Alone. On his way into the cage it seems that Glenn Gunn has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Glenn Gunn seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
