PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Luiz Lindland (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Risto Velttonen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lindland comes into the arena with Sandstorm blaring out of the sound system. Velttonen has chosen Ultra Bra - Hauki as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Luiz Lindland has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Luiz Lindland seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
