PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Eoin Chai (ranked 2456 p4p, 2495 weight class) and Daniel Gable (ranked 322 p4p, 323 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Eoin Chai has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Eoin Chai seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
