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