PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Harry Winston (ranked 3411 p4p, 317 weight class) and Aito Lager (ranked 1749 p4p, 206 weight class). Winston's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, The Lost Boy. Lager has chosen Army Of The Pharaohs - Seven as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Harry Winston has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Harry Winston seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
