Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Stevie Walker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Andy Allanson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Walker's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Thugs. Allanson has chosen Know Your Enemy as his entrance music. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Bhang Bhang (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gabriel Kiptanui (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

On his way into the cage it seems that Bhang Bhang has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Bhang Bhang seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
