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