PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Jay Cartwright (ranked 1887 p4p, 4113 weight class) and Rickson Time (ranked 109 p4p, 226 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Jay Cartwright has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Jay Cartwright seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
