PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Soviet Russia (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Masa Mallikas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Russia might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Soviet National Anthem. On his way into the cage it seems that Soviet Russia has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Soviet Russia seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
