PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Unkind Artist (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eric Osiris (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Artist kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Dropkick Murphys - Johnny, I Hardly Knew Ya. Osiris is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Deicide - Angels of Hell. On his way into the cage it seems that Unkind Artist has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Unkind Artist seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
