Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ice Lander (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Olli Jokinen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lander kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Tribute. Jokinen has chosen Prodigy - Poison as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Ice Lander has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Ice Lander seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
