Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Shinobi Wan Kenobi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Junior Avalon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Wan Kenobi's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Brand New - Welcome To Bangkok. The crowd seem to be enjoying Avalon's choice of entrance music: Eye of the Tiger. On his way into the cage it seems that Shinobi Wan Kenobi has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Shinobi Wan Kenobi seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
