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