PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Usko Unbelivable (ranked 5238 p4p, 460 weight class) and Janis Blums (ranked 24772 p4p, 543 weight class). Blums has chosen BEAST by Rob Bailey & The Hustle Standard as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Usko Unbelivable has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Usko Unbelivable seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
