PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Frank Hackleton (ranked 3271 p4p, 369 weight class) and Filip Pavi (ranked 3236 p4p, 366 weight class). Hackleton's entrance music is Gringo Hip Hop. A fine choice. On his way into the cage it seems that Frank Hackleton has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Frank Hackleton seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
