PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Sean Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sergio Fernandez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Fernandez has chosen Kanye West - Amazing (instrumental) Ft. Young Jeezy as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Sean Silva has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Sean Silva seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
