PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between John Fisher (ranked 216 p4p, 217 weight class) and Ilari Rahamies (ranked 21 p4p, 22 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that John Fisher has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily John Fisher seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
