PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ron Kane (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Logan Harter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Harter has chosen Stevie Ray Vaughan "Rude Mood" as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Ron Kane has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Ron Kane seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
