PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Aurelius Augustus (ranked 63 p4p, 92 weight class) and Jack Spratt (ranked 8 p4p, 14 weight class). Spratt has chosen Fit But You Know It as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Aurelius Augustus has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Aurelius Augustus seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
