PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ed Ricoop (ranked 3402 p4p, 0 weight class) and The Bomberman (ranked 6104 p4p, 0 weight class). Ricoop's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Bad to the Bone. On his way into the cage it seems that Ed Ricoop has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Ed Ricoop seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
