PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kajun Puno (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Veli Urhola (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Puno's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, 軍神. Urhola is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by The Trammps -Disco Inferno. On his way into the cage it seems that Kajun Puno has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Kajun Puno seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
