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