PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Victor Banuelos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Christopher Lytle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lytle is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Light's Out. On his way into the cage it seems that Victor Banuelos has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Victor Banuelos seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
