PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Samson Goldstein (ranked 231 p4p, 37 weight class) and Bunny Anstey (ranked 571 p4p, 77 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Samson Goldstein has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Samson Goldstein seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
