PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Terry Bull (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Max Power (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bull comes to the cage accompanied by The Last Shadow Puppets "The Age Of The Understatement". Power has chosen blue moon as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Terry Bull has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Terry Bull seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
