PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mike Reilly (ranked 541 p4p, 87 weight class) and Cleon Wright (ranked 1242 p4p, 174 weight class). Reilly's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, The Whispers - Rock Steady. On his way into the cage it seems that Mike Reilly has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Mike Reilly seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
