PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Lesley Nilson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jimmy James (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying James's choice of entrance music: NWO Wolfpack. On his way into the cage it seems that Lesley Nilson has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Lesley Nilson seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
