PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between David Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Grisha Kamenow (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jackson's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Roy Jones - Can't be touched. Kamenow has chosen Linkin Park - Bleed It Out as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that David Jackson has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily David Jackson seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
