PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Fred Palowakski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joshua Shouse (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Palowakski might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Burning Down the House. On his way into the cage it seems that Fred Palowakski has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Fred Palowakski seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
