PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Mickey Steel (ranked 6021 p4p, 0 weight class) and Duke Hardcastle (ranked 20242 p4p, 0 weight class). Hardcastle comes into a darkened arena with his song building. "Fade (Reed Streets Remix)" By Kanye West kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! On his way into the cage it seems that Mickey Steel has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Mickey Steel seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
