PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Shamar Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joe Frazier (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jackson kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Freak on a Leash. On his way into the cage it seems that Shamar Jackson has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Shamar Jackson seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
