PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Henry Black (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ghee Buttersnaps (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Buttersnaps has chosen Move on Up - Curtis Mayfield as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Henry Black has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Henry Black seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
