PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Lucas Lunar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ash Thomas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lunar's entrance music is Seperate Ways by Journey. A fine choice. On his way into the cage it seems that Lucas Lunar has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Lucas Lunar seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
