PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Jorg Mann (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and TJ Styles (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mann comes to the cage accompanied by Hawaii '78. The crowd seem to be enjoying Styles's choice of entrance music: Underground Kings. On his way into the cage it seems that Jorg Mann has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Jorg Mann seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
