PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between John Evans (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rico Ramano (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ramano is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Sabotage. On his way into the cage it seems that John Evans has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily John Evans seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
