PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Ethan Sheehy (ranked 7044 p4p, 503 weight class) and Nick Lassiter (ranked 5978 p4p, 474 weight class). Lassiter is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: You'll Never Walk Alone. On his way into the cage it seems that Ethan Sheehy has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Ethan Sheehy seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
