PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Luther Conrad (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bruno Belanger (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Belanger has chosen morbid ange l- immortal rights as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Luther Conrad has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Luther Conrad seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
