PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Uebishe Lesnoe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Childish Gambino (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lesnoe comes to the cage accompanied by It's On!. Gambino has chosen Bonfire as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Uebishe Lesnoe has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Uebishe Lesnoe seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
