PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jim Reynolds (ranked 24190 p4p, 4388 weight class) and Kilian Piper (ranked 648 p4p, 484 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Jim Reynolds has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Jim Reynolds seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
