PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Coors Light (ranked 4599 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jonathan Maia (ranked 24799 p4p, 0 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Coors Light has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Coors Light seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
