PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Ricardo Sabrol (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Victor Gregorivich (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sabrol's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Snap Your Fingers Snap Your Neck. Gregorivich has chosen The Pot as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Ricardo Sabrol has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Ricardo Sabrol seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
