Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Doug McSwain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ren Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think McSwain might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Jack Thammarat - My Headache Song. Gracie has chosen Wu-Tang Clan - Protect Ya Neck as his entrance music. This should be a great matchup!

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