PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jason Duval (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jon Haws (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Duval comes into the arena with Midnight City blaring out of the sound system. Haws has chosen The Garden's All Nighters as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Jason Duval has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Jason Duval seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
