PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Deangelo Gilmore (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Erwin Rommel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rommel has chosen Eminem-Superman as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Deangelo Gilmore has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Deangelo Gilmore seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
