PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Cameron Sloan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Artur Levchenko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Levchenko is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Zelenoglazoe Taksi. On his way into the cage it seems that Cameron Sloan has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Cameron Sloan seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
