Main event

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Nick Diaz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Colin Millen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Millen has chosen Da Strike! as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Nick Diaz has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Nick Diaz seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
