PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Pablo Soriano (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Davis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Soriano's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Bebot by The Black Eyed Peas. Davis has chosen Crash by 12 Stones as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Pablo Soriano has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Pablo Soriano seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
