PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jackson Martinez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kalevi Holger Routakirves (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Routakirves has chosen Miami Nights 1984 - Elevator of Love as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Jackson Martinez has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Jackson Martinez seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
