Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Mibu Kyoshiro (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dewayne Jennings (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kyoshiro comes to the cage accompanied by You're The Best Around. Jennings has chosen Step Out (by Benny Page) as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Mibu Kyoshiro has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Mibu Kyoshiro seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
