PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Papy Abedi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Franklin Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jackson is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Pink Floyd - Money. On his way into the cage it seems that Papy Abedi has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Papy Abedi seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
