Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Gabe Shade (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joe Crazy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Crazy is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Crazy Train. On his way into the cage it seems that Gabe Shade has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Gabe Shade seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
