PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Nick Morris (ranked 554 p4p, 67 weight class) and Wale Ammond (ranked 1211 p4p, 145 weight class). Ammond is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Bad. On his way into the cage it seems that Nick Morris has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Nick Morris seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
